Im a bigger fan of a 12-6 curveball myself (Probably from watching Sheets)

 

I also love a 12-6 slider. (Marmol's). (I think thats what he is throwing).

Maybe I'm wrong, or out of date but I do not think a slider can be 12-6 by definition.

Well, if you were throwing sidearm, it could be done.

Wouldn't the ball have to break up in that case then making it a 6-12? :)

No it can't. If you're throwing sidearm it would be a 3-9 or 9-3, depending on which arm the pitcher throws with.

For some reason I thought this was going to be an article on which pitcher throws the most effective curveball, and I was hoping to see Barry Zito's name left off the list to continue his fall from notability...
